Two years ago I bought a pretty Adenium at a big box store. The flowers were unusual (to me) in that the center was a dark pink and faded out to a pale edge. The plant is healthy, no sign of insects or disease, it is planted in a well draining mix and it sets healthy looking buds regularly but they always blast. I have not seen this one bloom since I bought it. I have tried more and less water, fertilizer and less of that, different locations, you name it and I still can't get any of the buds to open before they blast.

Any other ideas? I am ready to compost this plant.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
